Job 36:17-19

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁷ But now you have a lot of trouble,
    because God is punishing you as wicked people deserve.
God is right and fair to judge you like that.
¹⁸ Be very careful!
    Do not let anyone use their riches to deceive you.
Do not let them pay you a lot of money
    to do something that is wrong.
¹⁹ Even if you become rich,
    that would not keep you safe.
Even if you were strong and powerful,
    that would not keep trouble away from you.
